What is going on with the new sponsor/strip. Its usually announced by now and sometimes the new strip is worn on the last day of the season. Its a potential pr, marketing and financial blooper. They could now miss out on thousands of sales. I know a load of people that like to have it ready for their summer holidays and might not get it later. It should have been ready to go on sale at midnight Sunday. They'd have sold thousands ready for kick off against Man Utd and that cash would have been in the bank.
Yeah I was wondering where our new strip is... Maybe problems with a sponsor? Nothing has been announced yet which is strange.... or maybe we havn't got a design suitable for us yet :S I know sometimes brands make kits specially for teams. I think regardless though, the club will sell the kits whenever the release them.
Im an inpatient t word. I love it when a new kit is due and probaby in a minority that likes that its every year.
Not a lot they can do with the home strip in fairness so maybe it's the away shirts that are causing the problems. Not a fan of this seasons away top (it hasn't seen a victory yet live or on the telly) so can't wait to change it.
I think its the sponsor. Both umbro and tombola are finished so theyll be negotiating deals for sponsor and manufacturer. Thought it would have been signed sealed by now. Tombola and boylesports both announced mid April.
hopefully sorting out the details of a mega sponsorship deal... whats a few thousand shirt sales to a big sponsorship?
I've been told that the umbro and tombola deals don't end till the end of May and that's why there's been no announcement. However Liverpool announced their new deal with Warrior sports months ago which led to the rumour of adidas picking us up???
It seems feasable. BTW Adidas has already been anounced as our kit providers. This was done some months ago.
it hast been announced officially as far as Im aware just a newspaper article saying they will be. Don't think the club has commented
